India has retaliated to the statement made by Pakistan in the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC). Using the 'right to reply', India said that the representative of Pakistan has once again misused this platform for malicious propaganda against us.

 

India said, "Pakistan's commission of inquiry has received 8,463 complaints of 'enforced disappearances' in the last decade. Baloch people bear the brunt of this brutal policy. Students, doctors, engineers, teachers, and community leaders are regularly banished by the state."

 

India further said the Christian community is equally ill-treated. It (the Christian community) is often targeted through strict blasphemy laws. State institutions officially reserve 'sweeper' jobs for Christians.

 

India in the UNHRC further said state violence and apathetic judiciary lead to the conversion of underage girls from other communities to Islam. The Hindu and Sikh communities face issues such as frequent attacks on their places of worship and forced conversions of their underage girls.
